O0h I wish he didn't trample so much on the soil ! by beryl

O0h I wish he didn't trample so much on the soil !

Been a busy sort of day - the morning waiting around till the gas man came to service my central heating boiler and system . I had been thinking the reds were not as hot as usual and he informed me I could do with having the system power flushed ! After digesting this news I decided tho phone to enquire about this ! After looking the myriad of possible numbers to phone ,, chose one got through to animated response and choices I got through to a human - after a few questions to certify who I was ! I lost contact , Tried the 2nd time - a female animated voice - a whole lot of different questions -- decided they were leading me nowhere - so I rang up . Tried another number - - unknown number !! Tres frustrated and gave up - shall try again tomorrow morning when calmer !! After lunch and a nap I went to do my weekly shopping , After putting all away ( I hate the job !) I realised I had not submitted a photo today - went out towards the garden and just saw Mr Pigeon as usual trampling in the flower beds -- I was not amused !! How modern technology at times can frustrate !!
Nicely captured.So frustrating when we can't talk to humans.

A frustrating day all round then Beryl! I sympathise with your trying morning....we can waste so much time hanging on waiting for someone to answer our enquires! Have a restful evening before the same thing tomorrow!

The sort of day that tries one's patience. Hope it goes well tomorrow.

It is such a pain not having ‘real’ people to answer your queries.

oh that face 🤣

Pigeons do tend to trample stuff! Hope you have a better day tomorrow!

That sounds like quite a frustrating day you had. I'll ask my husband if he can offer any help regarding the boiler.

He says any local plumber should be able to do the job, check out your local 'best of' selection of tradesmen. We have one called 'best of St Neots' Or a personal recommendation from someone you trust. It may cost about £200, that's a guess.

@busylady Thanks Judith ! but I am with BG and as have already had a powerflush some years ago - it has a lifelong guarantee and they will do a reflush free of charge as many times as one needs in the future !as long as you are still on a contract . But many thanks !

Mr. Pigeon looks like he has been having a dance in your garden . I hope you manage to speak to someone tomorrow Beryl about your gas I find sometimes you can still still get through to someone to actual speak to by by- passing the options and going to- anything else. at the end.

@wendyfrost Good idea Wendy - must listen to the message to the end and whether it goes on to "anything else "!! I was a bit hasty - once I heard my option , I jumped it !!

Beautiful shot of the pigeon. Sorry you had such a trying day.

With you it's a dove...with us it's the darn squirrels. they're digging in the three flower pots Hans made ready for our purple shamrocks.
You had a frustrating day today, hope you've better luck tomorow.

Can be soooooo very frustrating....Love your capture of Mr Pigeon.

Sorry to hear of your frustrating morning and hope tomorrow is much easier! No fun trying to talk to those animated responses! I’ve learned to put the phone on speaker, have a cup or two of tea and try to do something I enjoy while waiting for a human to answer.
April 16th, 2021  
You sure had a busy day, love the shot of the pigeon, hope he does not do too much damage.
April 16th, 2021  
Lovely capture. Looks like he's in charge.
April 16th, 2021  
Nice capture, but do understand the frustration. Those types of phone calls raise my blood pressure

It sounds like ‘one of those days’ ... and even the pigeon joined in! But he makes a good photo!
